  • Blood Alcohol Educator
    Please don’t drink and drive. Let us keep our roads and highways safe! The Blood Alcohol Educator (BAE) is an interactive, educational online program provided by The Century Council, a national not-for-profit organization, in conjunction with the University of Illinois. By entering your sex, weight, number and type of drinks consumed, you can quickly learn about how alcohol affects your individual BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration). The BAE program also tells users the legal blood alcohol concentration limit for driving in their state.

    Think when you Drink! Driving while either intoxicated or drunk is dangerous and drivers with high blood alcohol content (BAC) are at increased risk of car accidents, highway injuries and vehicular deaths. Prevention measures evaluated include license suspension or revocation, impounding or confiscating vehicle plates, enforcing open container bans, increasing penalties such as fines or jail for drunk driving, mandating education for young people, and lowering legal BACs. Also discussed are safety seat belts, air bags, designated drivers, and effective practical ways to stay sober.
